Yes, there is always hope.

You might want to check out the Friends and Families on this board, where you will find lots of support for yourself.

Welcome! Glad you found us! I agree with 51anna---the Family and friends forum is a great place to start regarding finding the help you need as well as trying to better understand your loved one. You are always welcome here, though! Good luck--I hope you find the support you need--we at SR care about both you and your loved one. Hang in there! :ghug3

hey makie,
are we the only peeps on here from the uk?!?
if you got questions you wanna ask that you dont want to upset your partner by asking, feel free!
I've been in and out of recovery for years and to be honest, you'd probably be helping me along the way somehow!

am uk and theres plenty more of us in here-its just a matter of looking-the thing is that theres always someone from the uk on here-and if theyre here at the same time you are then the chances are they'll be feeling the same way or just need to talk to someone-just a thought.
